"Y/N! Are you almost done?" You peek out the bathroom door at your best friend Historia, she's slipping on her black healed maryjanes. You had finally turned twenty-one last week so Historia planned for a night out on the town. "Yes, sorry just fixin' up my hair super quick!" You pull out the final strands in the front of your half up half down look, then nervously smile in the mirror. You're wearing a leather tennis like skirt, fishnets, a black tank top, and a leather jacket for when it gets chilly later in the night. You pair your outfit with some silver accessories and Doc Martins. 

"I'm so glad you wanted to do this with me Y/N, You need a break all you do is work!" Historia exclaims while she's waiting by the door. You come out the bathroom and grab your purse. "I know, It drains me, when I get home all I want to do is lay down and doom scroll until I'm ready to go to bed" You say while walking over to her. "Well you look absolutely hot and sexy, so let's get a move on! I want you to meet a guy or something too, I fear you must get laid or you will explode and we can't have that."  

"You are not wrong about that, I'm not usually into hookup culture but maybe if I find someone special I could get lucky." You give Historia a wink. She laughs a little and says "It's a collage bar, I don't think anyone could meet your standards." 

"We can only hope." 

You both get into the Uber and head to your destination. "By the way Ymir will be meeting us there if that's okay?" Historia asks shyly. "Of course it's okay why wouldn't it be? I'm glad you have someone in your life like that." You smile and give her a little shoulder nudge. Trying to calm your nerves you start small talking the Uber driver practicing on talking to new people. 

"Welcome to Titan territory!" Historia announces to me as we pull up to the bar. Titans are the university's mascot. You don't attend Paradis University  since you almost flunked out of high school but you do work full time and rent an apartment with Historia while she attends to said University, you're childhood friends so you two have always wanted to move in together since you were kids. 

You head into the bar and find Ymir sitting in a booth saving you and Historia a spot. "Hey Y/N happy belated birthday!" Ymir cheers super loud. Looks like she already had a drink or two. "Thank you Ymir! Thanks for coming out with us, cools my nerves." You say smiling. "You really don't get out much huh?" She asks. "Work, eat, sleep, repeat as one would say." You chuckle. 

Historia takes a seat next to Ymir and gives her a peck on the cheek. "Long time no see my beautiful girlfriend." Ymir smirks and then gives Historia a short deep kiss. "Why don't I buy a round for the birthday girl? Do we want shots or some mixies?" Ymir asks. "Shots! Shots!" You and Historia synchronize. "Alright Alright, what would you all like?" 

"Surprise us!" You say then glance at Historia, she nods in approval. "It's on you if you get fucked up tonight." Ymir then walks off to get the goods. "So, what do you think?" Historia asks. "See anyone special yet?" Raising her eyebrows up and down. You take a look around the bar and take in how packed it is in here. "Not yet we just got here girl, trust the process." You both laugh.

You turn to the bar to see if Ymir has the drinks yet, but out the corner of your eye you see someone looking directly at you. It's a guy with brown hair in a bun, and piercing green eyes. You quickly turn back around towards Historia and feel kind of flustered.

He was kinda hot  you think to yourself. You didn't look at him long enough to get the full visual since he caught you so off guard. "I'm backkk" Ymir says with three shots in her hands. She passed them out to us and did a little toast for my birthday. 

Clink. Tap. Gulp.

"Aw man, this is Tito's!" You say while scrunching up your face. "The best of the best!" Ymir laughs and wraps her arm around Historia. "To be fair most liquors are not that good." Historia try's to comfort me. "Yeah I guess, I just had a few bad moments with tito's." You look at Historia and it looks like she's trying to hide her laughter. "Come on now! Let's not talk about it!" Historia busts out laughing. "We won't, we won't I promise." She says. "However, the next round is on me!" Historia jumps out her seat then heads up to the bar. 

Clink. Tap. Gulp. 

"I just cannot get used to this." You wipe your mouth with a sour expression on your face. "After one more you will definitely get used to it." Ymir suggests. "Your turn babycakes." Historia winks at me and tilts her head toward the bar. "You can do it Y/N!" Ymir cheers. "Now that you've had a couple chill out a little!" Her shouting fades as you get closer to the bar area. She definitely needs to slow down. 

"Three Tito's shots please." You tell the bartender. The bartender pours the shots. "$21." She says. Right as you're about to reach into your purse someone approaches. "It's on me." You look up at it's the guy that was looking at you earlier. He is even finer up close, he's wearing dark grey baggy jeans, a cream short sleeve and an olive green jacket. You notice a key necklace around his neck and many ear piercings. 

Damn. 

"Oh, it's okay I've already been treated tonight." You say. "No I insist, I heard it's your birthday." He gave you a soft smile. "Technically it was last week, I just haven't gone out to celebrate yet because of work." You pause for a moment. "How did you know it was my birthday?" You start to choke on your words. When was the last time you have had an actual conversation with a guy? Especially a hot guy. 

"I could hear Ymir's loud ass from across the bar." He chuckles and gives the bartender his card. "You know Ymir?" you ask confused. "We have some classes together so I see her around sometimes, I've never seen you before though." He looks me up and down and then meets my eyes and holds contact. "I don't go here, I room mate with Historia, Ymir's girlfriend." You both turn to your table and see the lovebirds exchanging kisses. 

"I've seen her around, didn't know she was into girls like that, I'm quite shocked." He said with a soft chuckle. There was a long pause. "I'm not saying there's anything wrong with that." He says defensively. You laugh. "You're all good I didn't think that either when we were kids, but she's happy and I'm happy for her."  

"You sound like a good friend." He smiles at me again and then sticks out his hand. "I'm Eren it's a pleasure to meet you." You shake his hand and give him your name. "Y/N" He repeats. "That name fits you well." You begin to feel your heart beating super fast and your face starts to get hot. He leans in next to your ear and whispers. "If you need anything let me know." He backs away gives you a wink and heads back over to his friends.

You grab your drinks and turn towards your table. You see Ymir and Historia wide eyed staring at you. "Fuck." You whisper to yourself as you make your way back.  

"Well well well, looks like Jeager has his eyes on you." Ymir smirks. You blush and put the shots down. "He seem's nice." You smile shyly. "Well I think he's a moron." Historia gave Ymir a slug on the shoulder. "Be happy that Y/N just talked to a man! By herself too!" You sigh and look down. Am I that lame? You think to yourself. You look up and search the bar for Eren. He's with a blond guy who has a baby face, and a girl with pitch black hair who's dressed in goth attire. You stare at him a little longer and start thinking. Thinking about what his hands felt like, or a kiss. "Hey Y/N snap out of it, let's take these fucking shots!" Historia whoops as she holds her glass up for another cheers.

Clink. Tap. Gulp.

"You were right I think I'm getting used to it." You say and stare out into the distance making eye contact with Eren one more time."Let's dance!" Historia grabs you and Ymir by the hands and drags you onto the dance floor.
